Commmunication COM (2004)65 recognised the geo-strategic implications of the command of information

Tasked GMES to enable decision makers in Europe to effectively realise EU Policy making

Prioritised services at global – pan-European - regional and local level for

Acquisition of independent knowledge on the state and evolution of the global environment

Supporting the EC 6th Environmental action Plan

Providing support to EC Common Agricultural, Fisheries and Regional development policies

Support to civil protection

Land service GIO Regulation – Annex - Objectives of GIO

land monitoring services shall ensure that Earth observation data and derived products are made available for the benefit of European, national, regional and international authorities responsible for the global-to-local environmental monitoring of biodiversity, soil, water, forests and national resources, as well as in general implementation of environmental policies, collection of geographical information, agriculture, energy, urban planning, infrastructure and transport. Land monitoring services shall include monitoring of climate change variables;

Copernicus Regulation: art 5 Copernicus service component

1. The Copernicus service component shall consist of the following services….

(c) the land monitoring service, which is to provide information on land use and land cover, cryosphere, climate change and biogeophysical variables, including their dynamics, in support of the global-to-local environmental monitoring of biodiversity, soil, inland and coastal waters, forests and vegetation, and natural resources, as well as implementation in general of environment, agriculture, development, energy, urban planning, infrastructure and transport policies;

Copernicus Regulation: art 23 Copernicus data and Copernicus information policy

(b) strengthening European Earth observation markets, in particular the downstream sector, with a view to enabling growth and job creation;

Strategic Dimension Copernicus

pace



• The GMES Initial Operations Regulation of 22 September 2010 set objectives

for a GMES Data Policy

• Set scene for adoption of DelegatedAct on Data Policy

• Milestone reached in 2013:

• Full, Free and Open Data policy promotes the access, use and sharing

of Copernicus information and data

• One of the main objectives is to support downstream segment and

research, technology and innovation communities

• Business, citizens and environment are to benefit from free access to EU

satellite data and service information

Data Policy 2011 - 2013

pace



Copernicus is a public service

provides free, full and open access to data and information

worldwide

Need to distinguish between data policy for

SENTINEL data (open),

Copernicus service information (open),

Contributing missions (data policy of the provider)

Security restrictions may apply

Copernicus Data Policy

• In line with data-sharing principles of Group of Earth Observation

Sentinels

Sentinel 1 – radar imagingAll weather, day/night applications

Sentinel 2 – Optical imagingLand applications: urban, forest, agriculture,..

Sentinel 3+6 – Ocean and global land monitoring, high precision ocean altimetry

Sentinel 4+5 – Atmosphere composition monitoring, from a geostationary (-4) and a polar orbit (-5)

Each Sentinel is technically different to meet the needs

of the 6 services

Service Evolution – How to deal with new user requests

Operational service will not be static

Research needs arising from user requirements and new methodologies

Immediate service enhancement (mature products): inside Copernicus

Long term evolution: research e.g. input to Horizon 2020

Copernicus User Uptake foractivities to continue

Trade-off between priorities,costs, expected benefits

Services are to maintain and document:

User requirement data base

Evolution strategy

Role of user forum and

Copernicus Committee

The Copernicus Regulation, Article 4.1(e) :

support and contribute to European policies:

a) Providing the knowledge base on which policy

decisions are taken (ex-ante);

b) Allowing to monitor if a policy measure is being

applied, and/or has the desired impact (verification

tool) (ex-post).
